As viii be seen there ars three rooms on

an easy house TO take care of. in that there
is 10 waste space and all the rooms are
readily accessible without extra steps. Waste
room means waste of energy and waste Of
money in more ways than cne-was;e not

cost of the building, but In carpets and in the
labor of swecIln, and caring for them.
In the parlor at the right of the hall arc

also door between the kitchen and dining
room; llGxl5 is Tot large kitchen. Tho
availability of kitchen space is not entirely
dependent, however. on its dimensions, but
rather upon the disposition of the wall
space and the conveniences which have to do
with kitchen. 1t VIII be seen that there is
a space for the kitchen range or stove near
the kitchen ilue which does not conflict with
the use Of any other part of the kitchen
Also there is n space between the door which
leads into tho pantry and an outside wall
which will leave space for a kitchen safe,

necessary to use the kitchen safe in all Sec

where there is no annoyance from the dust Of
the streets The kitchen window is placed
about three feet above the floor. This gives
wall space under it. Where c safe is not

A Car Fire Extinguishcr.

Apracticable invention. perhaps. is that
# car fire extinguisher. in case Of de-
railment or collision. 1t consists of a tank
Of water above the stove. with large
pipe extending from it TO the inside of tie
stove, just above the fire; trap in the
bottom of the tank is connected by levers
with series of arms at the bottom of tie
Ear. one of these arms extending under
zach corner of each platform, while
another extends down toward the track;
in case, therefore, of collision. one of the
arms under the platform must be struck
first, thus moving the lever, opening the
trap. and instantly deluging the fire with
water-or. in case Of derailment. one of
the arms hanging down toward the track
IS struck and operates the lever.
